Abstract (en)

A method of Computational Fluid Dynamics CFD simulation for a product including a plurality of individual components, the method comprising creating a library of known components, including their component geometry and modelling properties needed for simulation, the components being individually meshed within the library; using a graphical user interface GUI to select and place a plurality of components from the library in a desired configuration to make up a CFD model of a product; and CFD simulating the model by scheduling a plurality of solvers, each solver modelling a component group comprising part or all of at least one component, to manage the time of action of the solvers and data exchange between the solvers.
